In a recent Akashic Record Insights Workshop, we explored a bit about the new year. Discussion began with this question:
What word or phrase would the Akashic Records give the world to symbolize the coming year?
The unknown is where personal power and transformation thrive. By embracing the unknown with trust and courage, you unlock expansion and spiritual integration. 2025 offers growth for everyone, wherever you are on your journey.

They give me a picture, and it partly resembles an image I was just working with.
They say you find your personal power within the unknown.
You find your personal power within the unknown.
They don’t mean it’s something external to you that you have to go out and search for. They mean it as a path into understanding and working with yourself. It’s that part of you that you don’t yet know where the magic is, where the majesty is, where the answer to the question lies. That’s why they say your power exists within the unknown.
They also emphasize this because they see that many people on Earth right now aren’t sure of themselves or their ability to navigate life. While this is a common experience, the answer is to understand that the unknown isn’t something to be afraid of. It’s the place where you’ll find the answers you’re seeking. To do that, you must trust yourself, believe in yourself, and know you are worthy of the journey. You have the capacity to walk this path.
So, 2025, even though it may not immediately seem this way, is a year of expansion or the possibility of expansion for just about anyone. You don’t need to be perfect, highly evolved, or spiritually adept to experience this kind of growth. Expansion doesn’t require you to get somewhere first. It happens wherever you are. Believing in yourself and in that possibility is where the magic lies. As scary as it may be, this is how life is transforming right now. We are at a place of spiritual enlightenment and transformation. This isn’t something that will happen after completing a set of steps—it’s here now. Our presence is already with it.
Having the courage to take those steps, even without knowing exactly why you feel called, is key. This ties into the ideas in the book and workshop we did in December about the Soul Compass. It’s the concept of the soul paradox: the thing that seems to hold you back or keep you from moving forward is, in the fear of that conflict, where the answer lies. That’s the unknown. Humanity has moved into a space of integration—body, mind, heart, and soul. This means the unknown is part of our daily lives. Our ability to be present with ourselves in the face of the unknown is where everything comes together. It’s how everything works.
This doesn’t mean the problems go away. Life doesn’t suddenly become all puppy dogs and unicorns. Instead, what feels like a block or obstacle is actually a motion forward. When you look into it, understand it, and investigate it, you realize that what seemed to hold you back is actually a touchstone. It helps you find your balance and center, empowering you to take your next step.
